As you’ve guessed from the title, this page is an FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions, although some questions are more frequent than others) about the various topics that this blog is about. If you have a question about the Setouchi Triennale, Takamatsu, the Kagawa Prefecture, or any other topic you think […]
I guess it’s all in the title. Enjoy the last days of the year, and stay tuned for lots of new posts in the next year (Can we even hope for one or two more this year? Maybe)
